Hi all,

we have a BP page running with 30k users. Our usermeta Table is growing pretty fast because of a few plugins we use. I try to remove as many obsolete or unneeded Usermeta Entries as possible.

Therefore, my question is:
For every user there seem to be a few default WP-based Usermeta entries created, I’m talking about these:

1. nickname
2. syntax_highlighting
3. use_ssl
4. admin_color
5. rich_editing
6. show_admin_bar_front
7. locale

I mean they are never accessing WP-Admin as such – so I guess most of these are irrelevant. What do you think? These alone are already 7*30k = 210k entries (growing the table as well the index by a lot).

Is there any harm removing those?

Thanks!
